Can We Say No to Divorce?

Chapter 560 - 340: The Luxury Cruise Sets Sail 1

Bei Ran looked at everyone placing their expectant gazes on her and smiled, "Let me think about it first!"

That evening, when Bei Ran came out of the bathroom, Gu Qingchen picked her up and settled her on the sofa, "From now on, I’ll wash you!"

Bei Ran laughed, "Am I that delicate? Normally, you don’t fall when taking a bath."

"Resistance is futile!" Gu Qingchen dismissed her protestation in four words.

Bei Ran comfortably leaned back on the sofa as he handed her some milk, and she said, "I am indeed a bit hungry!"

Bei Ran nestled in his arms, murmuring softly, "Why do you like holding me like this more and more?"

He seemed to hold her as if she were a baby!

"Don’t you like being my baby?" Gu Qingchen chuckled lightly, his brows brimming with a warm and gentle affection.

Bei Ran snorted faintly, "Do you call this doting on a baby?"

"Haven’t you called me ’daddy’?" Gu Qingchen teased her.

Bei Ran’s face instantly flushed. For her, who had grown up without a father, the love she received from Gu Qingchen felt a bond of both father and husband. Despite their mere seven-year age gap, it was special.

"If I call you ’daddy’, and you call me ’baby’, does that make us some kind of perverts?" Bei Ran looked up and asked him.

"Of course not!" Gu Qingchen replied, "This is a way for lovers to exchange emotions, proving how well we match. I love having you in my arms, just like a baby, and in your heart, I hope to stand tall like a father, shielding you from the elements, with this sentiment lasting a lifetime."

"Wow, I didn’t know Doctor Gu was such an eloquent speaker!" Bei Ran exclaimed in admiration.

Gu Qingchen gently tapped her nose: "Call me husband!"

She playfully called out, "Daddy!"

He laughed helplessly, indulgently: "My little baby..."

While Tian Xin was traveling and sharing photos on WeChat, she became overjoyed upon receiving news of Bei Ran’s wedding and pregnancy. She messaged Bei Ran back, promising to return for the wedding.

Tian Xin was recently hounded by her mother so much that she was nearing hormonal imbalance. She suddenly wondered if she got pregnant without marrying, would her mother agree?

After thinking, she shook her head; she guessed her mother would be the kind to chase after her with a kitchen knife, sparks flying in pursuit!

She took out her telephoto lens camera, capturing every plant, every brick, and every tile of the city, savoring the joy that the holiday brought her.

Though she sometimes missed Yang Junyi, some love is meant only to be cherished in the heart, and some emotions are only to be remembered.

She didn’t hold any grudges against him, and she believed Yang Junyi felt the same way.

Life is a gentle, continuous stream.

Simple and perpetually repeating.

If one day you begin to enjoy this kind of life, it means you’ve truly started to understand.

Ji Su was starting to enjoy the simple life with her daughter, letting go of her hatred for Gu Yucheng. Even when he sometimes mocked or ridiculed her, she did not retaliate or talk back.

Firstly, she wanted to cherish the time spent with her daughter; secondly, she hoped Gu Yucheng could let go of his hatred for her and adapt to his new life with another woman sooner.

Days continued to pass.

With or without anyone, the Earth keeps on spinning.

Moreover, Ji Su taught Gu Yaowan that regardless of whether their parents were together, they both loved her the most.

Therefore, Gu Yaowan began to accept that her parents no longer loved each other.

But Ji Su taught her to love her father dearly!

One day, Ji Su took Gu Yaowan out shopping on the streets, where they encountered Lu Xiao patrolling and catching thieves.

Gu Yaowan clapped her hands and said, "Sister, you’re so brave! Here’s a thumbs-up for you!"

Lu Xiao let her colleagues take the thief away and, seeing that it was Gu Yaowan, said, "This is what a sister should do!"

Gu Yaowan looked up at her, "Sister, I was rude last time, and my mom said I can’t treat you that way. I’m sorry!"

Lu Xiao was moved, looking at Ji Su. "Wanwan, you’re such a good girl!"

Ji Su looked at her in uniform, poised and with a youthful vigor, "Miss Lu, thank you. It’s because of what you said last time that I had an epiphany, like waking from a dream!"

Although Lu Xiao felt a pang of loss, the idea of reuniting a family made her happy, "It’s good that your family can be together!"

She didn’t regret stepping aside, but she always felt that in life, feelings aren’t limited to just romance; there are other affections that are just as precious.
